A 1403 model printer does not use a FCB. Only 3203 and 3211 model printers use FCBs. Model 1403 printers use carriage control tapes:
Now that you mention it, the definition below works fine with SDL Hercules 4.5 for me:
000E 3211 Units/PTR2.txt lpp=66 fcb=11:1,1:4,5:5,10:8,6:14,4:19,7:24,2:34,6:44,4:49,7:54,8:63,3:66
It will produce proper front/back pages. You might have to devise some mechanism to convert PTR2.txt to a PDF after a job, and reset it. In the past, I remember using a script to convert, and the HTTP server to reset.
